Ham & Hashbrown Egg Bake

 I made this for a get together with friends. It was very flavorful, I would make it again.

20 oz shredded hashbrowns - thawed

16 oz ham - diced

2 cup shredded cheddar

8 egg

2 tsp onion powder

In a large mixing bowl, add eggs and milk and mix well. Stir in the seasonings, then add ham, hashbrowns, and cheese. Mix well and pour into a greased 9x13" baking dish. Bake at 350° for 45 minutes or until set. I baked it at 400° for the last 10 minutes to crisp up the top.
